Tips - If the awning fails to retract or extend:
• Verify the One Touch key is in the ON position.
• The house battery cut off switch is in the ON position.
• The house battery voltage is at 12 Volts or above.
• Verify proper electrical connection from the awning motor to the
side of the motorhome.
Emergency Retract Procedure:
If the One Touch awning fails to retract and proper DC voltages have
been verified, the One Touch awning has two emergency methods of
alternately retracting the awning.
1. Two exposed electrical studs are mounted externally at the
forward end of the awning at the motor assembly. An alternate
12 Volt DC positive and negative supply may be applied to these
connections. If awning fails to move, reverse the polarity of the
alternate supply leads.
2. On the motor assembly, mounted externally at the forward end
of the awning, is an opening. Insert a 9/64” Allen hex wrench.
Using an electric drill, wind the awning to the retract position.
CAUTION: When using an alternate method to operate the
awning, use extreme care to keep appendages, hair or loose
clothing away from exposed rotating hardware.
The slide-out cover is automatic. When the slide-out moves in
or out, the cover reacts to the slide-out direction. A fixed edge of
the slide-out cover is installed into an awning rail, mounted just
above the slide-out. A spring-loaded roller with special brackets
mounts to the slide-out. In a hard rain, the cover helps prevent
water from penetrating the seal of the slide-out.
The slide-out cover will extend automatically attaining full
coverage when the slide-out achieves maximum
extension.
NOTE: Water may pool on top of the extended
cover. As the slide-out is retracted, the water is
removed when the cover retracts.
The slide-out cover retracts automatically and rolls up to the travel
position when the slide-out is completely closed.
NOTE: When retracting the slide-out, stop the room
approximately halfway. Confirm that the fabric is rolling
properly before fully retracting the slide-out.
